Bug 112435

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.1; Linux)

Description of problem:
The LG LST-D400 modem is working perfectly on my FC1, but Kudzu didn't configured it corretly.

Solution bellow...


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kudzu-1.1.36-1, kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plug the modem on the USB port
2. service kudzu start
3. Try to make the modem work with a ppp connection


Actual Results:  Kudzu detects the new modem but it doesn't know how to configure it correctly. Generated block on /etc/sysconfig/hwconf:
....
-
class: OTHER
bus: USB
detached: 0
driver: unknown
desc: "LG Electronics Inc. LG CDMA WLL"
usbclass: 0
usbsubclass: 0
usbprotocol: 0
usbbus: 2
usblevel: 1
usbport: 1
usbdev: 2
vendorId: 1004
deviceId: 6800
usbmfr: LG Electronics Inc.
usbprod: LG CDMA WLL
-
.....


class and driver fields are wrong.



Expected Results:  Full plug-and-play functionality

Additional info:

Making 'modprobe acm', dmesg shows a message about ttyACM0 being created, but is not....
I had to create by hand on /dev:

crw-r--r--    1 root     root     166,   0 Dez 19 09:12 ttyACM0


Then I had to configure /etc/wvdial.conf by hand:

[Modem1]
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
SetVolume = 1
Dial Command = ATDP
Init1 = AT +CRM=1
Baud = 460800
Init3 = ATM1L1
FlowControl = CRTSCTS


The Init1 string looks to be very important. I received it from my broadband provider support people.

And somebody told me to put this in /etc/modules.conf. I think this is irrelevant for this bug, but didn't tested without it:

alias char-major-108 ppp_generic
alias tty-ldisc-3 ppp_async
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate
alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate
alias /dev/ppp ppp_generic


After doing that, I was able to normally configure a ppp connection using redhat-config-network.
